These headphones saved my sanity
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these so much, the noise cancelling has been a lifesaver! I was struggling with some noise issues at home as well as at work; the in-ear buds I had been wearing were starting to cause some pain in my ears so my sister suggested these headphones since her husband had the older model and had sung their praises. The price tag was a little daunting but I decided to go for it - and I don't regret it one bit! I haven't completely mastered the controls yet, but I can turn the noise cancelling on and off and that's the biggest thing for me. For work, sitting around the house, and travelling, I highly recommend!

Hot and bothered
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These run a bit hot on my big head, but the sound quality is fantastic. Its spoiled all my other sound systems. Need to put some time into figuring out how to make them comfortable (for me I have to wear them at max extension), while not slipping in the gym (much tighter), and the cushions are maybe a bit thin for super long wearing. Hurts after a few hours.

Better than Bose QC 35
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A little better than my previous Bose QC 35 headphones- which I rank very highly. Amazing noise cancelling technology and an auto-stop feature when you remove the headphones make these worth the price.

Sony Headphone really good.
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best purchased so far. ANC is surprisingly good. One verdict is that it's hot while wearing for a long time, but feels better than an in-ear headphone in terms of comfort.

Great update to the XM2s
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I upgraded to these new headphones after a few years waiting from the XM2s. I can speak to a few changes based on those old headphones. For me the headband is no longer made of metal but plastic. This isn’t a bad change since it’s lighter on the head but it’s noticeable. The 2nd is the multi connection which is great as I don’t have to disconnect and reconnect to every other device I want to connect to now. The 3rd is the usb c charging port instead of the old micro charger. This makes the one cable to charge all devices closer as I can charge my computer, headphones and other devices now with one cable. The noise canceling and music sound quality is still top-notch and overall I recommend these headphones to anyone looking for a great all around pair of ANC headphones.

Can't Believe My Ears
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've owned a countless number of headphone over the years. My favorite has always been Bose Quiet Comfort, so I was somewhat skeptical about buying Sony. I am soooo glad I did, These are by far the best sounding headphones I've ever owned or heard. If you use any of the lossless HD streaming services, like Deezer, Tidal, Apple Music, or Amazon Unlimited, you will be amazed at the quality of the sound. Noise canceling is superb and offers features to quickly interrupt it when needed (just place your palm over the right earphone). Only drawback for me is ear pads can get a little sticky after prolonged listening. These are new best in class bluetooth, ANC headhones, IMO.

Best Value
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got these for the LDAC bluetooth capability. It worked well, and sounded pretty good. However, I returned these since my Apple Airpods Max sounded just as good to my aging ears. So, these became unnecessary. If you won't be connecting to apple products, pick these over the the AirPods Max, they are a way better value. If you do plan to use with Apple products, the AirPods max will give you a better more robust experience.
